Introduction to Shelly

Shelly® is a family of innovative Devices, which allow remote control of electric appliances through mobile phones, PC or home automation systems. Shelly® Devices use WiFi connectivity, and they can be controlled from the same network or through remote access (any internet connection). Shelly® Devices may work standalone on the local WiFi network, without being managed by a home automation controller, or it can also work through home automation cloud services, accessing remotely from wherever the User has Internet connectivity. Shelly® has an integrated web server, through which the User may adjust, control and monitor the Device. Shelly® has two WiFi modes – Access Point (AP) and Client mode (CM). To operate in Client Mode, a WiFi router must be located within the range of the Device. Shelly® devices can communicate directly with other WiFi devices through HTTP protocol. An API can be provided by the Manufacturer. Shelly® devices may be available for monitor and control even if the User is outside the range of the local WiFi network, as long as the WiFi router is connected to the Internet. The cloud function could be used, which is activated through the web server of the Device or through the settings in the Shelly Cloud mobile application. The User can register and access Shelly Cloud, using either Android or iOS mobile applications, or any internet browser and the website: https://my.shelly.cloud/
What is Shelly Motion
Shelly Motion is high sensitivity ultra-low power-consuming WiFi Motion sensor that stays connected to the internet 24/7 and no additional HUB is required to control it. Shelly Motion sends a notification once motion is detected or it will instantly turn on the lights. It has a built-in accelerometer providing protection when someone tries to dislocate or move the device. The built-in light sensor gives additional opportunities for home or office automation. Shelly Motion has a built-in 6500mAh rechargeable battery which allows the sensor to be connected to the Internet (standby mode) for up to 3 years without recharging, and in active transmission (approx. 6 hours/day motion detected) estimated between 12 and 18 months.

https://shelly.cloud/app_download/?i=shelly_generic

Registration
The first time you load the Shelly Cloud mobile app, you have to create an account that can manage all your Shelly® devices.
Forgotten Password
In case you forget or lose your password, just enter the e-mail address you have used in your registration. You will then receive instructions to change your password.
IMPORTANT! Be careful when you type your e-mail address during the registration, as it will be used in case you forget your password. Include it to your WiFi with Shelly CLOUD APP
IMPORTANT! Before adding a new device, your phone MUST be connected to the same WiFi network where you want to add devices. DO NOT connect your phone to the WiFi network created by Shelly devices.
You need to have at least one created room in the Shelly Cloud App before adding Shelly Motion to it. Otherwise, create a room. Click on the hamburger menu icon in the upper right corner

Choose ADD DEVICE from the menu, click on it and follow the instructions.

Include it to your WiFi manually
Shelly motion can be added to your home WiFi network without using the Shelly Cloud APP. To do this, search on your PC or phone for a Wi-Fi network named shell motion-xxxxxxxx. Connect to it and open hitp://192.168.33.1 with the browser on your phone or computer. Choose the Internet and Security menu, enable WiFi mode
— CLIENT and enter your WiFi network credentials.

When Shelly Motion connects to your WiFi network, the blue light will go out.

Add a device to your account
When the device is added successfully to your wifi network you will see a new room called “Discovered devices”.

IMPORTANT! The device you added may require a firmware update before it can be used. In this case, you must wait for this to be done before proceeding. Do not reboot the sensor until the firmware update is finished. A flashing Blue light followed by 1 minute of no light and the final Blue/Red/Green sequence is an indication of a successful firmware update.
Select the found devices and add them to the room you have selected.

MOTION SENSOR FEATURES AND SETTINGS

After adding the sensor to your account, you can change its set- things according to your needs. Settings can be changed both through the Shelly Cloud app and through the local web page of the device, which you can open through a browser.
SHELLY CLOUD APP – Motion status
In the Shelly Cloud App, movement can be detected both on room and sensor levels.

	No motion
	Motion detected
	Motion detection deactivated
	Vibration or movement is detected.

DEVICE WEB PAGE – MOTION STATUS
Opening the device page by IP manually, the following statuses are available: motion status, vibration detection, battery level, light in- tensity, sensor activity status, and lightning mode.

Sensor control
In this menu, you can set the basic parameters for the operation of the sensor.
Illumination definitions
Shelly Motion has a built-in light sensor. It measures light intensity in Lux, which can differ from the values measured by other devices- es, depending on the measurement specifics and location of the device. You can assign three different light modes: Dark, Twilight, and Bright. Each light mode can have custom predefined sensitivity values. By default Dark is under 100, Twilight is between 100 and 500 and Bright is above 500.
Motion sensitivity
Allows you to adjust the sensor’s level of sensitivity. By default, the value is 50, which allows the detection of objects over 15 kg at 5 meters distance. If you have a pet, setting this value will allow the sensor not to detect it while moving. Importantly, large pets can be detected, especially if they stand on their hind legs. You can adjust the sensor sensitivity level based on your needs.
Motion blind time
Can be set in the range of 1 to 5 minutes. Within the Blind time period, motion detections will not be reported. Only motions detect- ed after Blind time, will be reported and information will be sent.
Motion pulse count
Allows the sensor to send alerts only if motion is repeated. It is usually used to avoid false positives. The default value is 1, if you have false positives you can increase it up to 4.
Motion detection operating mode
Lights control based on certain lighting conditions, The options are “In any light”, only when it is dark, “Dusk” or “Light”. If the sensor is not in the specified range of illumination, it will not detect movement and will not perform any action.
Tamper alarm sensitivity
Shelly Motion has a built-in accelerometer to detect vibration and temper. If someone is trying to divert or move it from where you placed it you will be notified. You can adjust the sensitivity level based on your convenience and location. This may be needed if you use the sensor in a place where there may be vibrations from vehicles or other causes.
Motion sensor
From here you can enable or disable device motion detection. When disabled, the sensor will not send information in case of motion until you Enable it again.
Sleep time
This feature allows you to temporarily disable the sensor to detect and send movement information for a certain period of time. After the specified time has expired, the sensor will be reactivated. The sleep time can be terminated manually by enabling it from the Sensor Motion menu.
Weekly scheduling
Schedule timer
Shelly motion supports modes of operations based on day, time, sunrise, and sunset parameters. To select the operating mode, select the time or position of the sun and one of the two possible options: Activate / Deactivate motion detection. This allows you to define to be notified in case of unauthorized movement detection.

Internet & Security

Wife mode – client
WiFi network settings and information, including the option to set up a fixed IP address.
Wifi client backup
Backup network settings in case the sensor is lost or cannot be connected to the primary WiFi network.
ATTENTION! After connecting the backup WiFi network, the sensor will remain connected to it until disconnected or restarted it.
Wifi mode – access point
By default, during the first use, Shelly Motion creates a network named shell motion-xxxx without a password. You can change the network name and set a password.
Restrict login
Shelly motion can be set up by opening the IP address on the Wi-Fi network. To restrict access to its built-in Web interface, you can specify a name and password. This is often necessary if the sensor is located in public networks with access by many users.
SNTP server
Server from where the device synchronizes time and date.
MQTT and COAP settings
MQTT and COAP settings allow the sensor to connect directly to 3-party automation systems. Can be enabled/disabled separately.
Cloud
Ability to deactivate or activate the connection to Shelly Cloud. This option works independently of MQTT and CoAP
Actions – Control your other devices directly
This feature allows Shelly motion to control other devices on the local network or the Internet (IFTTT and others) without a cloud or other automation system. If you have a Shelly relay or a light bulb or other device that can be controlled via the Internet, then Shelly Motion can send the command directly. For more informal- on about the commands, you can send to control other Shelly devices directly:
https://shelly.cloud/documents/developers/ddd_communication.pdf and https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/

The following options for performing URL action are possible:

Motion detected

Motion detected in dark
Motion detected in twilight
Motion detected in bright

End of motion detected
Tamper alarm detected
End of tamper alarm

Each of them supports up to 5 URLs that will be executed when motion is detected, end of motion or vibration. In addition, each of the 5 action URLs can be limited in time. This allows you to set the sensor to control the light intensity (if you use a Shelly Dimmer or other device with similar capabilities) to be specific to different times of the day. You can also control any other device according to the time of day.

Settings
Led light control
To turn off the light indication when motion or vibration is detected.
Firmware update
Check for a new firmware version and update it.
ATTENTION! Do not reboot the sensor until the Firmware update is finished. Flashing Blue light followed by 7 minutes of no light and a final Blue/Red/Green sequence is an indication of a successful firmware update

Battery lifetime and optimization
Shelly Motion sensor is a battery-powered device that is perma- gently connected to the Wi-Fi network and the Internet. In standby mode, it can reach up to 3 years of operation without recharging and in cases of active movement between 12 – 18 months. However, in order to be able to achieve the specified operating times in it is extremely important to comply with the following requirements:

Mount the sensor in place with a strong enough WiFi signal. It is desirable that the RSSI is better than -70 dB.

Do not open the local page of the device unnecessarily. It is not designed to continuously exchange data to read its settings and status. In case of an event, the device will immediately send the necessary information to Cloud, Local Server or execute Actions. If you have opened the local page, close it as soon as you make changes to the settings you want.
If the device is set in a place where there is frequent movement, consider whether it is necessary to report it 24/7 or only at certain time intervals, if so, create a Weekly Schedule for when to send the information about that.
Do not place the device outdoors in direct sunlight, high humidity or the risk of water droplets falling on it. Shelly motion sensor is made for Indoor usage or in well-covered places.
